Benefits of technology

The present invention is a system that helps multiple players in a game work together better for things like drawing or purchasing. It improves the overall experience of the game.

Problems solved by technology

On the other hand, cooperation such as joint purchases has not been examined for F2P games that provide intangible items.

specific example

[0089]A specific example of when the first list is a friend list will now be described. FIG. 6 shows an example of a first list in one or more embodiments of the present invention. The first list shown in FIG. 6 is a friend list of player A, and list categories include player IDs, player names, and attribute information. Player A may or may not be included in the first list. Player ID is information used to identify a player, and may be used in a friend search. The player name is the name arbitrarily selected by that player, and is used when displaying the list. Attribute information is information that includes information about items used in the game, etc.

[0090]If a friend list is the first list, then generating a first list at the first generator 514 includes the meaning of acquiring a first list. The reason is that since a friend list has already been generated at the time of a drawing event, the first generator 514 does not need to generate a first list every time there is a dr...

Abstract

An information processing device includes a controller that generates a list that includes a plurality of players while a game is underway, a receiver that receives a request from an external device to acquire an intangible item to be executed in the game based on input from one of the players, and a transmitter that transmits a signal to the external device. The controller counts a number of predetermined players who have input the request within a first time period among the plurality of players. The controller outputs, to the transmitter, an instruction to award the intangible item to the predetermined players when the number is less than a predetermined value. The controller outputs, to the transmitter, an instruction to award the intangible item and an additional intangible item to the predetermined players when the number is greater than or equal to the predetermined value.

Description

BACKGROUNDTechnical Field[0001]The present invention generally relates to an information processing device, a method of game processing, and a game processing system.Related Art[0002]There are conventional systems that control the joint purchases of users who are online via a network, and systems that provide users with joint purchase coupons (see Patent Literature 1, for example).[0003]Patent Literature 1: Japanese Laid-Open Patent Application 2001-243373[0004]Certain game systems today are known as free to play (F2P), in which a game intended for a smart phone or other such mobile terminal is downloaded at no charge, and basic play can be enjoyed for free. These F2P games include events in which intangible items, etc., are awarded by drawings (called “gachas”).[0005]The objectives of the joint purchases in the technology discussed in Patent Literature 1 are the compression of raw materials by scheduling and committing to purchases by large numbers of people, and providing users wi...
